Workington town centre’s hub will be repaired following storm damage.
The hub, in the town centre, has sustained multiple tears in recent storms, most recently Storm Eowyn.
Tomorrow, Thursday February 13, the specialist plastic canopy will be removed.
Cumberland Council said: “The canopy, which is currently attached to the overhead circular structure and known as an ETFE dual membrane, has sustained multiple tears in recent storms meaning it potentially poses a safety risk and is also causing a noise nuisance.
“The work will be carried out by a specialist sub-contractor who originally installed the structure. A council representative will be on site throughout the work.
Work is due to start at 6am, weather permitting, and the membrane is expected to be safely removed by around 10am when the area can be fully reopened to the public.
